For Kile, competing in the Selection isn't an honor or a privilege. It's an inconvenience, and he's not going to let that inconvenience (or the bratty Princess Eadlyn) get in the way of his plans. If he just plays along, he'll be free by the end of the summer, and he can leave the chaos of the Selection behind.
Unfortunately for Kile, there's more to the stunning-but-spoiled princess than meets the eye.
Unfortunately for Kile, true love is usually the most inconvenient kind.
